Thanks for your time and help sorry if I miss something I am a little noob on forums
1. Listen carefully to your assigned instructor. They'll be your biggest resource for the day. Also, take a tire pressure gauge. Drive with all aids off. Leaving them on means the car is "catching" you, depriving you of the opportunity to learn from errors.

2. Leave your car stock. As you drive it more, you will discover what aspects of it you want to change. At that point, start modifying.
